SO NEAR, YET SO FAR is a perfect description of the Chocolate Turtle, a New Mexico Bed and Breakfast located in the picturesque Village of Corrales a historic farming community in the Rio Grande river valley of New Mexico.

Relaxed and low-key, Corrales, New Mexico is a world apart-you’d never know that we are surrounded by two of New Mexico’s largest cities: Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, and just a short drive to Santa Fe. This historic village provides a step back in time and is home to working art studios, spas, historic sites, galleries, shopping, restaurants and wineries.

This inviting B&B is centrally located with easy access to the famous Sandia Peak Tramway, the Balloon Park, galleries, and convenient for day trips to explore cultural and historical sites as well as outdoor activities including hiking, golfing, biking, and bird watching. Moderate temperatures, 360 days of sunshine and the high desert climate distinguish Albuquerque, making outdoor recreation enjoyable year round.

Fresh flowers and delicious chocolate turtles await you in your room. And did we mention the scrumptious breakfasts served on the portal (weather permitting) or in the cheery breakfast room?

A stroll on the walking paths along the nearby historic acequias is like a step back in time as you pass orchards, vineyards and horse farms. In fact you may even get to pet a llama being walked by a Villager.

The Sandia Mountains afford a beautiful and unique backdrop for weddings outdoor receptions and other types of celebrations. Our meeting space provides a great way to retreat from the office hustle. This Albuquerque area Bed and Breakfast is a perfect choice for the business traveler offering late/flexible check-ins and early breakfasts, business services, and free high speed wireless internet.

Whether you live across the country or just over the Rio Grande, the Chocolate Turtle bed and Breakfast is a perfect getaway.
